How long is our window open?

Post: # 768143Post xander »

Just wondering how long people think we have to challenge for a flag?
At the start of the year i thought this would be the last year with our ruckmen getting older but they have been in good form and if they hold up for a couple years we could be a strong team for a while.

What do others think?

I reckon we're gonna be very Sydney like for a while. 5-6 years easy.

Who we gonna lose in that time? MG and King are easily enough replaced by Stanley and Macca in 2-3 years. Dawson is a perfect replacement for Max. Baker isn't irreplaceable anymore, Jones is playing no.1 tagger now anyway.

Lenny's irreplaceable, but still has 4-5 years left. With Armo or Steven replacing him.

We should have a decent shot at the flag for at least 3 years, and I dont think we'll be goin down the bottom for a while either.

I don't know but it's just started to p*ss with rain so I'll go and shut it.


I've never seen a bad St.Kilda player - that's just how they are.

We really are gone. Our window has been closed for so long now and I wish we could just stop playing so bloody well!!

boom, boom! :)


5 prelims in 7 years. 40 wins from 49 games.
2009 and 2010 were 2 of the 5 best years ever by the St.Kilda FC.
Thanks for all your efforts Saints.
